Notes
Droncit notes for this version:
Reworked the mono source to simulate stereo using various combinations of filters and rebalanced by adding certain frequencies into either the left or right channel to try to give it a cleaner sound. Also used a spectral filter for greater presence. Reworking the profile changed the perceived loudness. This version sounds louder at the same settings for normalization. It's not perfect, but I think it has more presence and it's easier to hear the individual instruments."
After normalization, I also did the following:
One tenth of a second of silence during the transition from Scarlet Begonias to Fire on the Mountain was removed; there is still some visible evidence of the problem, but I don't hear it while listening. I also recut the file without regard to original timings, so it's probably a different track delineation now. I didn't hear any other spots like that.
I eliminated the dead spots in the dropout during Black Peter. It's still very clear that there's a problem, but it's a little less jarring.
The opening 10 seconds of both Me & My Uncle and FOTD were very low, so I raised levels in M&MU about 5-6 dB to bring it up to where it should have been. I don't think it's noticeable now. There were also several instances of a fraction of a second of blank space noticeable after raising the gain. I deleted these. and cut so the 3...4 countdown is audible. An edit is also noticeable before the song starts (probably just a tape start/stop). The opening of FOTD was raised approx. 3dB. Added 1dB to the 12 seconds before the opening of Cassidy as it seemed a little low. Added 2dB to the 15 seconds prior to Passenger because of the interesting guitar ditty, which sounds vaguely familiar.
Vocals remain thin-sounding in some spots (especially the second set), possibly due to the missing channel.
All work in this version done with Diamond Cut 8.0 Forensics.
Thanks to BCE.

Amazingly no one has remarked on this version of the show yet; it's the best-sounding one so far, and the show itself is easily one of the greatest of the year.
